"An amazing spotlessly clean room. An Amazing delicious breakfast. Staff and Chefs were wonderful. My husband got up to pick some fresh basil from the plant just outside on patio ( Was so hot we ate inside ) To add to his fresh eggs and tomatoes ! We called Giuseppe when we arrived in Matera and as stated he was there in 10 mns to pick us up. Linens, bedding and shower facilities excellent, ultra modern! If you have any mobility issues all Matera might be difficult to maneuver around but if not it feels like you are in a movie scene. Thank You Giuseppe & Hotel Basiliani"
